Like any good teenage boyfriend, Aspen has an irrational and overly emotional response-despite the fact that it was his suggestion-and breaks things off with America. Realizing this, Aspen asks America to apply to the Selection, assuming she won't be chosen. If America marries him, she'll be even more broke than she is now. There's just one problem, however: Aspen is a Six.
This hormone-addled pair frequently meet in America's tree house at night, and things are so hot and heavy that they're even talking marriage. That reason? Aspen, America's secret boyfriend. America's mom really wants her to apply, but America refuses for some reason…some sweet, hunky, sensitive reason. Unsurprisingly, not everyone loves this system, and there are several rebel groups trying to overthrow the government.Īmerica has just received a letter inviting her to take part in the Selection, a reality show competition in which 35 young women are brought to the palace to fight for Illéa's prince's heart. Illéa has a numeric caste system that ranges from One to Eight: America and her family are Fives, which means that (a) they're pretty poor, and (b) they're required by law to be artists or musicians, even if they're no good at it or want to be something else.
America Singer is an average sixteen-year-old girl-or as average as you can be in the country of Illéa, which was formed out of the remnants of the United States following World War III.
